ORIENTALIS DAN DUPLIKASI BAHASA ALQURAN (TELAAH DAN SANGGAHAN ATAS KARYA CHRISTOPH LUXENBERG)
ABSTRACT: Abstract: The Qur’an
is a holy book seving as the source of inspiration for the seekers of science,
including those who belong to orientalists. They make Alquran as an object of
study and research among both academic and non-academic. One of the most
contemporary issues of orientalist studies of the Qur’an was written by
Christoph Luxenberg “Die Syiro-aramaeische Lesart des Koran: Ein beitrag Zur
Entschluesselung der Koransprache” (The
Syiro-Aramaic Reading of the Qur’an: A contribution to the Language of the
Qur’an Description). Luxenberg says that the Qur’an is heavily influenced by
the Syriac-Aramaic language; therefore, to understand the Qur'an properly, one
must learn it through the Syriac-Aramaic language. According to Luxenberg, the
Syriac-Aramaic language was the language of Lingua Franca of Arabic society at
the time of the Prophet, while the Arabic language (Fusha) came later after the
Syriac-Aramaic language had reached perfection. This article tries to review
the opinion of Luxenberg, then gives arguments by citing the opinion of some
prominent Islamic reviewers.
